Manage episode 439119267 series 2799517
Identity theft is a real concern for ER docs due to high patient interaction volume. Consider the reality that accessing an EP’s signature can open up opportunities to obtain medications or allow for other financially-driven motives.

On today’s episode, we’ll discuss a large data breach that impacted most Americans and lay out the things you can do today to prevent fraud happening tomorrow.
